A synthetic and structural study on metal cluster complexes of allyl—alkynyl—silanes: Does protonation lead to metal-stabilized silyl cations?

Abstract

The mono-alkynes Me3SiC≡CSiMe2(CH2CH=CH2) 7 and (CH2=CHCH2)Me2Si-C≡CSiMe2(CH2CH=CH2) 8, and the di-alkyne (CH2=CHCH2)Me2SiC≡C-C≡CSiMe2(CH2CH=CH2) 9, have been prepared and treated with Co2(CO)8 and Mo2(CO)4Cp2, respectively, to give the corresponding dimetalla-alkyne tetrahedral complexes. Two of the clusters have been structurally characterised: [Cp2Mo2(CO)4]Me3SiC≡CSiMe2(CH2CH=CH2), 11, crystallised in the space group C2/c with a = 15.058(3) …
